Calendar control & VFP9b

I'd like the click event of the calendar ocx to update the value
property of a textbox which is elsewhere on the same page. However, as soon
as any code I put in the click event begins to fire, the calendar reverts to
the default date, and I can only get a value for today. Guess I need a
calendar control tutorial.
Can anyone help?

Hi,

Try this, in the click event of the OleControl :

thisform.text1.value = this.object.value

I put a calendar Ole on a form and return its value when closing the form
(convert year,month,day parts as a date value first).

And you can capture its value by this :

Do form calendarform To Thisform.textbox.value
